Blue Super-Automatic
My cousin bought me this knife at a Mexico border town in the summer of 1984. It has never been used or carried and is in as good of condition as when I got it. OTF knives were often called "stilettos" or less frequently "angel blades" in the 1980s.

Re: Blue Super-Automatic
We used to call them Stiletto's also. Some of my friends still do.

Hi Matt,
Your knife looks like the day it left the shop. I really like the blue scales and the slide release is blue too, not black.

That is a very clean example, thanks for sharing!
Re: Blue Super-Automatic
It's hard to think that you didn't use it. If I had owned it I would have used it. Were you ever tempted?
Re: Blue Super-Automatic
Yes I remember everyone called them stilettos back then. Bell Metal model K 108! The blue handles were a bit rare......
